Description[]
Performed by moving forward and pressing medium kick, the attack sees Ken step forward and then launch a fast strong kick at the opponent. The attack is similar to the Thunder Kick.
However, the animation in Street Fighter IV differs in that Ken leans a bit more backward when he kicks forward compared to the version in Street Fighter III.
In Street Fighter V, Ken can perform Forward Step Kick by holding the input for his V-Skill I, Quick Step. Unlike all other appearances, here the attack knocks the opponent down.
In Street Fighter 6, Ken can perform Forward Step Kick by inputting Heavy Kick during the rush portion of Quick Dash.
